MILAN -
Les Bleus trail unbeaten Ireland, who faced Wales in Cardiff on Feb 22, by four points ahead of this weekend's matches after a hugely frustrating defeat at Twickenham a fortnight ago ended their Grand Slam hopes.
And head coach Fabien Galthie has made some bold choices for the trip to the Italian capital, with Thomas Ramos moved to No. 10 to partner star man Antoine Dupont in the half-back positions and seven forwards selected as replacements.
And Theo Attissogbe starts on the wing in place of Bordeaux's Damian Penaud, who will have to wait for his record-equalling 38th try for France after being dropped following a poor display against England.
